    Hi doubleclick ,

    This isn’t something Power BI supports in native visuals. Axis categories must come from a column and those are resolved before any slicer driven logic (measures) is applied. That’s why your solution can highlight the selected supplier correctly but can’t replace just that one label dynamically.

    I suggest you keep your anonymised axis (Supplier 1, 2, 3…) and then use visual cues to identify the selected supplier, like colour (which you already have), plus a dynamic title, tooltip or data label that shows the real name. If you strictly need the axis label itself to switch to the real name, that would require a custom visual like Deneb, as it’s not achievable with standard Power BI charts.
